Botox Treatments

Hunter's botox treatments went off without a hitch. They could not completely put him under because of his cold. They didn't want to intubate him because shoving a breathing tube down into his chest could spread the cold or stir up the infection in his lungs. This would be risky with Chronic Lung Disease. They were still able to use a little gas, so that he could be comfortable. Now...we wait! It takes up to a week for it to start working. It takes up to 3-4 weeks for it to reach its full potential.

Before he went back for his procedure, I was able to catch a couple photos of him. Hunter was getting ansy, so the nurses brought out a big bubble lamp to keep him entertained. Hunter likes the lights. You can see that he is wearing his hospital gown.
